Hi guys,
If you don't mind me asking...
1) How do you get Safari to work with NMCI Webmail without it prompting for
username and password whenever I click on any message (or any link in my
Inbox)?
2) I have a PCMCIA card reader for my CAC. Is there a way to get that to
work with Windows on VirtualPC so that Windows Internet Explorer can get
access to my PKI? Or is a USB card reader by only option to make this
work?
Thanks!!
Frank
